April 11, 2009The voice cast is hilarious while the 3D doesn't overpower the movie, it's enhances the movie experience. Definitely a must-see for kids & adults.
-
November 22, 2009Monsters vs Aliens is skilfully animated and spasmodically funny, but you get the impression the film?s seven (!) writers ran out of ideas two-thirds of the way through.
-
November 16, 2009Not as good as I was expecting it to see. The voice actors were pretty appropriate picks, Seth as a blob, Hugh as a cockroach scientist.
-
November 14, 2009The kids loved it. It was fairly funny, and had some good references to old 50's sci-fi. Didn't see it in 3D, or in the theatre.
-
November 13, 2009A meteoric let down. The writers of Monsters vs. Aliens seem to confuse references with jokes. Copyied scenes or paraphrased lines from popular science fiction films, do not constitute a good sense of humour. All it demonstrates is a very unimaginative piece of cinema. The only t...( read more)

November 22, 2009It's alright, but not as good as most other animated features coming out. Worth a watch though.

November 22, 2009took me long enough to finally pick an animation to watch, and as a first impression it was fun, new, but i expected more out of the plot or design alone, as for the performance of the actors...it was great. interesting and entertaining. Not sure if this one is for all ages, seem...( read more)

As I took off my gray-lensed 3-D spectacles at the end of Monsters vs. Aliens, I felt not so much immersed as fuzzy with exhaustion. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
I don't think there are any characters here that a child would love. full review

Pete Hammond, Hollywood.com
In terms of generating pure, Monstrous laughs this is the year's funniest comedy so far - animated OR live action. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
True, the story doesn't amount to much, but the plot tends to take a back seat when you've got a not-quite-50-foot version of Reese Witherspoon duking it out with a mighty alien robot alongside the Go... full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
The cool stuff -- like 3-D and collapsing bridges -- may get filmmakers halfway there, but to make it all the way home, they need the usual movie elements, like a good story and vivid characters, and ... full review

MvA isn't, and isn't pretending to be, as ambitious a project as Pixar's almost universally lauded Wall-E was. But does it have to feel like something that's just rolled off a conveyor belt, made acco... full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Three-dimensional sequences, whether animated or live action, can feel more gimmicky than integral to the tale. Happily, such is not the case with the entertaining Monsters vs. Aliens. full review
March 26, 2009
A.O. Scott, The New York Times
A highly competent, smartly engineered delivery system for the very clichés it pretends to subvert. full review
March 26, 2009
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
An animated funhouse that delivers on its title and ups its scary-comic impact if you see it in 3-D. full review

January 30, 2009When California girl Susan Murphy is unwittingly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk on her wedding day, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall. Alerted to the threat of this new monster, the military jumps into action and Susan is captured and secreted away to a covert government compound. There, she is renamed Ginormica and placed in confinement with a ragtag group of other monsters: the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.; the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement is cut short, however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and begins storming the country. In a moment of desperation, The President is persuaded by General W.R. Monger to enlist the motley crew of Monsters to combat the Alien Robot and save the world from imminent destruction.
